sold 200ltc @ .0313 ( a while ago)

bought 500ltc @ .03

sold 700ltc @ .0304

Now I'm out of my over-extended daytrading position and back into something I'm willing to hold for the daily charts.

you are holding short 700 LTCBTC?? very nice. That idea occurred to me in the rush fro $21-17.8, but I am focused on BTC.

I think you will be well rewarded.
No I'm not short. I'm trading on btce actually.

At one point tonight I had 1450ltc. Now I only have 600LTC.

after watching the ltc swings i wonder why the hell i trade btc/usd. it all started with ltc for me btw. my first 500% of profit was ltc trading., maybe i should go back

Question (since you seem know your stuff)... how does LTC handle volume? I didn't trade any alts yet, always thinking 'probably too much slippage to be worth my while', but from what I can tell you don't trade in tiny volume either. Is it worth it? (I'm aware, asking another trader if he thinks I should trespass into his territory :D ... just think of me as another pig that can be slaughtered)

I will post when I sell hopefully on 4/20. I know it's a lame trade just wanted to get in on the action.

I never thought my life could be. Anything but catastrophe. But suddenly I begin to see. A "BIT" of good luck for me. Cause I've got a golden ticket!

This is why I trade ltc on btc-e. btc-e is like mtgox for litecoin (when gox was still big). When I was trading last night (morning), the volume was:
ltc/btc: 600,000LTC / 20,000BTC
ltc/usd: 1,200,000LTC / 2,400,000USD

So the total volume was about 1,800,000LTC.

This is actually low for a litecoin rally day. On previous days, volume has been as high as 5 - 10 million LTC.  That is why it crashed.

I opened a short on bfx at $610 to cover the coins I sent to btce. I don't feel like selling there for some reason. I might move them to cold storage.

does anyone else think it's time for a LTCUSD upswing/correction? I do. I will be looking to short heavily at 19.5 if it gets there.

There are divergences present in the charts. I do not see $19.5 happening but If I'm wrong, then I'll just make more profit, so we'll see Tongue

Edit:
Oh and BTW, I picked up a few million dogs in the 120's looking for 300's+ to exit

I've come to the realization that doge now has 3% of the volume of that it had when I first started trading it and I should probably stop trading it until that changes.

just bought

49.1 ltc for 1.42btc ~ 0.0289
and another
32 ltc for 1btc ~0.0307

sold the ltc @ 17.30$ last night. lost a bit of the bubble profit with this trade.  Undecided

full fiat atm.

ltc market looks bearish short term. on huobi 10k ltc bid walls just disappear before price reach them, its fake support.

but not confident with btc either.

I had buy-ins triggered at 557.32, just sold at 575. No doubt Bitcoin will go up a bit more, look as though it is going to break out but actually break down etc and whipsaw everybody around as the exchanges empty the side of the order book with the majority of leveraged trades into their pockets, but for me, overall sentiment is still negative.

I will be away from home all day today and don't consider the risk of having open Bitcoin positions worthwhile at this point in time.

My profits were pish. I just cashed them in out of spite for the market.

That short would have been a bit juicier, especially if leveraged, but also very risky doing any leveraged trade in such a shallow stagnant market.

You will soon learn that Bitfinex is a shark pool. Basically, you shouldn't set Stop Losses there. You will be cheated. I have seen Bitfinex spike to exactly where my stop losses where set before. i.e. My stop losses turned out to be the top of the short term market. The exchange owners would suggest that their are bots that can try and guess where the margin calls are. I would suggest that these bots have a little helping hand with inside exchange info, and then they bots can calculate how far up/down the order book it is worth their while to bid/sell in order to trigger margin calls.
